AIG Women’s Open 2024: Prize money payout in full

Lydia Ko produced a links masterclass to end her major drought and become the latest golfer to win at St Andrews.

The Kiwi, who won an Olympic gold medal only a fortnight ago, closed with a three-under 69 around the Old Course to win the AIG Women’s Open.

It was a third career major for the 27-year-old, and a first in eight-and-a-half years.

Amongst the many perks Ko can look forward to is a championship record cheque.

The R&A announced a $9.5million purse for this year’s event. Here’s a full breakdown who won what at the final major of 2024…
